    How do I go about having the motherboard/cpu diagnosed? I’m starting to suspect by order of symptoms that a bad PCIE lane fried the second card, then the second card killed both motherboards through what must be a weak point in the AMD architecture? Because while the card no longer worked on my intel system, it didn’t manage to kill any slots.

    Swapped connectors around, no change. Graphics cards or CPU is all I can think of.

    Guess it could be the power supply too on the PCIE connectors

    Well, switching back to the old board resulted in no post with both 1080s, first 1080 alone has some graphical issues and the second 1080 doesn’t post. Somehow I managed to mess them both up it seems who knows how. GTX 750 is just fine. However, oddly enough it seems like the Ryzen board bricks itself while my old 4790k is doing alright. ? Is it possible that a bad CPU could fry the two cards and PCIE lanes???

    Yes, two 1080s and two soft bridges. Identical setup as on my previous 4790k setup. Also, correction it’s a 3800x. A bit stressed out over this and brain farted.

    I’m just scared to brick my old board now, gave it to my girlfriend who had an old scrapyard style build. But I guess between that and going back to Best Buy for a new CPU... wish me luck on not killing another board!

    After seeing the LTT video on upgrading now, I pulled the trigger on going from a 4790k showing its age to a 3900x with an Asus ROG Strix X570e-gaming motherboard as well as 32GB if vengeance pro RGB and a Samsung 970 NVME ssd. Bench tested on the box first with my GTX750, no problems and installed windows on the SSD. Installed into my DIY PC desk, both 1080s, h110i pro, my old ssds and hdd, all known working stuff. First boot up and set up some more c drive programs. Weird hiccups in transfer speeds, but chalked it up to my old ssds and random files including some config files etc. Played some Outer Worlds, everything looked amazing. Finally, I checked my graphics settings to make sure my new AOC ultrawide was on the right settings. Weird, only one 1080. Eventually I check the bios, and nope nothing detected on second PCIE slot. Third works but nothing on second, neither my 1080 or 750. I get ahold of ASUS tech support, recommend RMA board. I try another bios flash since I updated and a new bios dropped, flash it and suddenly I don’t POST at all. Q code 02 and 06 varying. Screw it, I order a new board and return the old one through amazon. Just got the new board, once again test it before fastening etc with a 1080 and 750 in the second slot. Boots, detected, sweet. Install, both 1080s, doesn’t post all issues again. Doesn’t work with any graphics card. Is my 3900x bricking the board when I try dual SLI cards? Could a 1080 suddenly have gone so bad that it fries a pcie slot? Any ideas? No bent pins on the CPU, tried a different board, all I can think is bad CPU or somehow my 1080 kicked the bucket. I spent 1k on upgrades to brick my PC. Thanks to anyone with insight.

    This would be amazing for the poolside projector I've been wanting to set up!

    My HP laptop dv6-6113cl has been nothing but a tank. It has lasted for years and is missing trim pieces and is dented and for awhile I wanted to replace it but couldn't justify it since it was still working. A few months ago I decided to try and keep it going by buying it a WD Black2, I'm experimenting with an eGPU, and I was looking at getting an i7. But tragedy has struck. Just today I charged it and booted it up (after it died while hibernating) and suddenly the touchpad started having delayed and missed responses. I tested the keyboard and it misses key presses, even while holding a key down it intermittently misses. I proceeded to virus nuke it with many different programs that I use with great success. No luck, no viruses detected. I reinstalled the Synaptics driver. Still lagging. I checked the touchpad tracker and it showed me using it constantly even though the pointer was sporadically moving. However, external mice and keyboards work with no issue! So if anybody has any ideas, awesome. I'd rather avoid reinstalling the OS due to the setup of the WD Black2 not to mention the butt ton of drivers HP slaps in there and my steam library. Thanks everyone!

Not worried about wifi I have cables readily available for the second rig. With that case I could even put a rad on the CPU if I felt ballsy lol

    My main rig has a 4790k with an H100i, dual 780's with Kraken G10s each with an H55. I want to have a secondary rig that I can quickly put one 780 into so I can play with friends etc. My current secondary rig ie my parents' is an old Inpiron 531 with an Athlon X2 4000. I need help with building the smallest PC possible to replace this bottlenecked turd. I already have a NAXN 500w power supply I can use, and I am just going to get better RAM for my rig and give the secondary my old set. I plan to use the Pentium G3258 since it'll just be cruising the web and gaming oriented, and when I don't have a 780 in it it's just getting a 750. What I need help with is finding the smallest case and cheapest motherboard that has full sized dimms that I can shove the stock cooler pentium and my Kraken G10 powered 780. Alot I know but I need help lol.

    I really like not having to worry about water or dirt on Xperia Z2 versus my Galaxy Note 3 that I must protect like my baby, and regardless of whether I win or not I'm checking out dbrand because a completely personalized screen protector/case is totally badass.

    Is there a way to bump or get more people involved? I'd really appreciate help here...

    Knew I forgot to mention something, I did set it as the default device, and I even disabled everything else. I did the same with my audio output as my currently crappy stereo speakers and this headset share a splitter for audio.
